World No. 31 Charley Hoffman crafted a 4-under-par 31-35=66 in the final round of the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational to reach 10-under 270, up two places to solo 3rd, six adrift of champion Hideki Matsuyama, who shot 61. UPDATE:Hoffman jumps 11 spots to a career-high 20th in OWGR.

This was the 40-year-old's fifth Bridgestone and first top 10, brushing aside a previous-best T22 on debut in 2007. Overall, it was his 13th WGC event and first top 10, previously T13 at the 2009 CA Championship (Doral). It's the UNLV alum's 13th top 25 of the season in 26 starts, seventh top 10, and sixth top 5, second straight after P2 last week in Canada as 54-hole leader. It's also his 16th career top-3 finish in 332 career events (327 pro). After kicking off in 68-69-67, the San Diego native began T5, three shy of 54-hole co-leaders Zach Johnson and Thomas Pieters. He conjured three (of 14) fairways and hit 13 greens in regulation, posting 1.212 SG: Approach-the-Green. Hoffman squared Nos. 12 and 14, camouflaged by circles at 2, 4, 6 (hole-out from 78'11"), 7, 11 and 13, recording 1.692 putts per GIR and 1.444 SG: Putting. Aug 6 - 6:49 PM

World No. 31 Charley Hoffman signed for a 3-under-par 33-34=67 after the third round of the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational for a three-day tally of 6-under 204, up one spot to T5, three back of 54-hole co-leaders Zach Johnson and Thomas Pieters.

The 40-year-old hit six (of 14) fairways and 13 greens in regulation, gaining 1.939 strokes off-the-tee and 3.392 tee-to-green. He squared three bogeys at 12, 15 and 18 (3-putt from 74'11"), overshadowed by five conventional birdies at Nos. 2, 6, 10, 13 and 16, two from between 13 and 26 feet, adding a 27-footer from the fringe at the par-4 14th. The UNLV alum posted 1.769 putts per GIR and 0.102 SG: Putting, dragged down by four missed scoring tries from inside of 10 feet. Aug 5 - 5:55 PM

Beginning off No. 10 tee, World No. 31 Charley Hoffman crafted a 1-under-par 34-35=69 in the weather-delayed second round of the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational to reach halftime on 3-under 137, up four spots to T5 with play still in progress.

This is the 40-year-old's fifth Bridgestone with a best of T22 on debut in 2007. Overall, it's his 13th WGC event and still looking for his first top 10. His best is T13 at the 2009 CA Championship (Doral). The UNLV alum, who arrived off a playoff loss last week in Canada (as 54-hole leader), opened with a six-birdie four-bogey 68. On Day 2, he mustered four (of 14) fairways and hit 13 greens in regulation, gaining 0.862 strokes approaching-the-green but losing 0.605 around-the-green. The San Diego native circled three at Nos. 13, 2 and 6, all from inside of nine feet, squaring the 14th and 7th, both on failed scrambles. He recorded 1.769 putts per GIR and 1.608 SG: Putting, currently No. 1 in SGP with a cumulative 4.930. Aug 4 - 5:25 PM

Overnight leader and World No. 38 Charley Hoffman authored a 4-under-par 33-35=68 in the final round of the RBC Canadian Open to match defending champ Jhonattan Vegas on 21-under 267, and then lost to Vegas' birdie on the first hole of sudden death, the par-5 18th. UPDATE:Hoffman bumps seven spots to a career-tying-high 31st in OWGR.

After opening in 68-66-65, the 40-year-old led by one over playing competitor Kevin Chappell (71), three clear of Vegas, who shot 65. It was his fourth career 54-hole lead/co-lead in 331 career starts and drops to 0-for-4. On nine (of 14) fairways and 12 greens in regulation, the UNLV alum squared two bogey-4s at Nos. 7 and 12, outpaced by six birdies at 1, 2, 6, 11, 16 and 18, three from between 11 and 19 feet, adding a pitch-in 3 at 6 from 26'9" away. He missed birdie from 10'6" at the 17th and nearly won in regulation with a 22-footer for eagle that skirted the cup at the last. In extra time, both players missed the fairway, but Hoffman was forced to layup, eventually having to hole-out from a greenside bunker to extend, while Vegas chipped from 30'10" away for a tap-in 4. Chasing his fifth TOUR title, he settles for a seventh runner-up, second this season in 25 starts (T2, API). Jul 30 - 7:29 PM
